ubersonic Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Not sure what type of fuel filter Toyota used on the MKiv but the one on the 1JZ MKiii is a lifetime filter, people with 150k+ on the clocks have replaced them only to cut them open and find nothing wrong with them.

mellonman Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 This is the one from the T67 setup, its just a stock toyota filter no way!! i thought that had to be changed at bpu levels,what boost was you running on the t67 mines at 1.3 and the mapper said that it was at its limit with the 255 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) the pump may not be able to cope fair enought but I know setups with Bosch 044 setups and still running stock toyota filters. The T67 never flowed more than 1.5 bar, or thats what it said. The wastegate was fooked so for quite a while it was prop well overworked Edited March 27, 2012 by T2 MSW (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 MY old T67 P trim was what I used to run the first 10 sec 1/4 mile and it ran at 2 bar +++ on race fuel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
